  • I don’t see how having a motor to help you out and spending a few grand on a carbon fiber frame are much different.

    Some people cycle as a sport, and races don’t let you have e-bikes. Plus, putting in all the work to climb a hill under your own power and getting to ride down is rewarding. Sure, getting a carbon fiber bike makes the work a bit lighter, but you’re still the one putting in all the work, which isn’t the case with e-bikes.

    While the people in your example are failing to understand that people habe different motives for cycling, you’re doing the exact same thing here.










  • Who fucking cares? Get blackout curtains if that matters.

    I personally have the opposite problem during DST. Because night doesn’t start until 11pm or later where I live from DST, I can’t fall asleep until 12am or later. This is because light blocks the production of melatonin in the body. To fix the problem, I would have to set up blackout curtains all through my house (instead of just my bedroom) and close them all at 9pm just so I can go to bed at 10pm.

    Also, removing DST gets rid of the stupid time change without increasing the risk of kids getting run over while walking to school, which is what we’d get if DST was year round.
